They might be nasty people but still everyone has a right to a fair trial where they are innocent until proven guilty. I think this is especially important when you are trying to form a new democracy, it hardly installs confidence.

I don't, and I didn't suggest that I did. I said what I said, and nothing more. Read what's there. I said nothing about people in prisons, nor anything about torture.

I believe several people (including me) may have picked up on the fact that to the question of these people in prisons are not all guilty, you decided to say "All the people trying to kill us are guilty by definition."
I'm sorry, your point of view just confuses me. As the thread is regarding the difference between the nude pyramids and the beheading I don't think it's right to just say that the nude pyramid was fine (and not as bad) because the bloke at the bottom left was guilty of something, maybe.
Please don't take this as any attack on yourself I'm just interested to what you actually think and make sure I understand you totally.
